Not a 3-D cake but more of a 2 1/2-D! LOL! It is 3-2-1 layers of cake, with the "first floor" being 3 layers, 2nd floor 2 layers and top floor 1 layer. The roof pieces are chocolate. I wish I could have added more detail but it always takes me *forever* just to get the cake frosted and ready to decorate. I also wish it could have been "cleaner" but I think the rough look added to the spookiness. TFL
